• SQL Server Transactions - Back to Basics

  Hi all, I am having no end of trouble with transactions in the package which i am building. I now just want to go back to basics and see if someone can tell me where i should set specific transaction options.

There is another file system move directory task outwith the foreach loop to deal with the last di ...Show All

• SharePoint Products and Technologies Developing ASP.net applications (within sharepoint)

  Hi, I would like to develop a (custom) ASP.net application and host it within Sharepoint, of course with the masterpage provided by sharepoint. Now it's quite easy to create a ASPX page within sharepoint (via sharepoint designer). It's also easy to just copy and paste ASP code in that file. Works fine. Serge van Oever has a nice blog posting ( http://weblogs.asp.net/soever/archive/2006/11/09/SharePoint-2007-_2D00_-_2F005F00_layouts-and-how-to-create-pages-that-run-in-site-context.aspx ) about ASPX and code behind files within the sharepoint content. This works, but of course you don't get the great masterpage system provided by Sharepoint and SharePoint designer. VSeWSS CTP is out, tried that, works but only once (still ctp, so... ...Show All
